COCONUT CREEK — Police Wednesday released the identity of the man who was found dead after his car was pulled out of a lake near Wiles and Lyons roads.

Isaac Page Jr., 30, was found inside the two-door Chevrolet that emergency workers pulled from the lake about 12:15 p.m. Tuesday.

Authorities were called to the lake earlier Tuesday with a report indicating a vehicle had plowed through the hedges and plunged into the lake along the 4100 block of Wiles Road.

Family members say Page was the single father of four children. They described him as a hard worker and say he had been missing since leaving his chef's job at the Stargate Bar and Grill in Pompano Beach late Sunday or early Monday morning.

The investigation into the cause of the crash that killed Page remains under investigation.
